US FCC Not To Investigate Netflix Throttling Of Some Mobile Consumers

Well, it looks like, if Netflix throttles you, you will have to wait until it enables the data saver mode that it promised last week, so that you can unleash the full potential of your cellular connection while streaming video. Netflix denied it made false statements, continuing to insist that what it did, it did for consumers: quote:"We have not made false statements to the FCC".

"We're at a point where there's so much video traffic going across the Internet", said Glenn Hower, a research analyst for Parks Associates.
